The Utusan Malaysia article is a short story titled “Policitik Baru YB J” in pages 14 and 15 of its weekend edition Mingguan Malaysia. The story was written by Chamil Wariya. The said short story contains seditious messages and is airmed at instigating and inciting its readers to commit political assassination against the member of parliment for Seputeh YB Teresa Kok Suh Sim.
